I MELT

and no, I am not talking about the Rascal Flatts song! Man it has been so stinking hot here. Today our high was 105. When I finally ventured outside to check the mail I listened to the grass crunching under my feet and had to watch out for the cracks in the ground so I wouldn't trip. We are having the hottest August on record and once again we are behind on rain. We haven't had any significant rain since the beginning of July. I long to see these kinds of clouds again!

Today was the first day of school for my peeps. Dad, R, TatorTot and MadCow all had good days. I am so glad that it went well for them all. I was a little worried since it was everyone's first day without Memom. I thought about her a lot today because she always made a big deal out of the first day of school for us and she always talked to her grandkids to find out how their day went. I think she would be proud of how well they all did.

Well, I had hoped to get some work done around the house today but my foot had other ideas. I did a few small things but spent most of the day in the recliner. I need to get up and put clean sheets on the bed so we can go to bed but I will do it in a minute.

Well, that is all for tonight. I hope you are all staying cool and having a good week.
